Flying Pterodactyl Dinosaur goes down. General Sibley scouts area in vintage J3 Cub.

[rgbosio]

It flies very well!

Great video!

[3801Catcher]

Dave, with this to do elevon mixing, a Champ reciever has only 3 channels, and is able to have elevon mixing done without hard TX programing.

[buddybleau]

Did me good to get my mind off of other things for a while. Sometime's we have to lighten up. Thank you. Seems like building those little planes is rather good therapy.

[rockonmyfriend]

nice job man!

[cslr11]

love the vids you do keep up the great work

[tdemaree]

good work, you make great videos.. looking forward 2 more.

[SoCalsandman780]

Cool bird Dave. You did a nice job with the assembly directions. Looks like a lot of work to me, but for someone who wants to follow along you spell it out nice & clear. 5 stars.

[MaineHighrailer]

It just needs a pair of red LED's in the eye sockets...

[PaganWitchDoctor]

Thats a great Idea!

[thatssirforyou]

wow that's cool i'm not much of a fan of rc birds or other animals but dinosours are just way cool :D

[garyshoaf]

Why is Pterodactyl spelled with a "P"? Looks like it would be a great indoor flyer. BTW I hate winter!

[RoryFlick]

"Why is Pterodactyl spelled with a "P"?" It's Latin and all science is in latin.

[garyshoaf]

Right answer! You win nothing! I was attempting to make a joke.

[RoryFlick]

LOL. Some people though do ask seriously, these questions.

I appreciate the humour

[geekyvessey]

looks more like a Pteranodon and both the Pteranodon and Pterodactyl were Pterosaurs not Dinosaurs. Soz for geeking out i just hate it when people call Pterosaurs Dinosaurs.

[rcwilli1991]

gj dave!! i love the birds :P

[spektrum33]

Very entertaning ,i like the pterodactal it flyes great for a small plane .{*_"}

[Delaypat]

Very cool...My birthday is coming up HINT HINT...Just kidding!! Great stuff!!

[lostintimeBC]

looks like you got some snow

you make it look easy a little too advance for my

skill level

[taofledermaus]

Amazing a couple feet of snow can't stop you. I appreciate being able to watch your videos despite the conditions.

There's something about that yellow/orange color I've noticed too, it shows up really well in HS videos too.

[ramis182]

great video mr. herbert, great job flying the piper and weird dinosaur thing, but they both really do look like they fly great. nice job on the video as usual.

[jeflatt]

i like the new, camera! what is it?

[cjrush1009]

I wanted to add that the Pterodactyl flies real nice but I would beef up the motors you should be able to pull loops without stalling.

[cjrush1009]

I would love to see an ornithopter teradon or at least one then uses to webbing between the legs as an elevator and the crest as a forward rudder.

[coolboyhanseh]

kool nice vid

[chouytheboy99]

The micro J-3 cub is out now?

[NightFlyyer]

Just last Wed.

[chouytheboy99]

Cool thanks! I'm looking to buy one. Great video and quality as always!

[ssrc30]

By far one of the coolest things you have shown us yet Dave. Just wondering though, why don't they ship you the motors with a Y style set up? Doesn't make alot of sense to have it set up for 2 male connectors when you only need the one. 5/5

[NightFlyyer]

I guess part of the fun if the building part and fiddling with things. LOL Thanks kindly for your comments.

[ks4io]

dave that is the coolest plane ive seen from you yet, this will be hard to beat. thanks for sharing your videos with us

[NightFlyyer]

I totally appreciate your comments. Thanks.

[saberdryver]

Dave Im shocked you misspelled DINOSAUR.....Its cool though nice vid ;)

[NightFlyyer]

No body is PERPECT. lol Thanks for pointing that out.

[DireSpitfire]

Awesome Pterodactyl Dinosaur! Looked like it flew good in a slight breeze.

5*****

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks very much.

[j6sj7]

Good pterordactyl! It looked like it was going to be a ptouchy flier but it ptruly did okay in the pterrible weather, except for ptangling with pthat ptree!

[NightFlyyer]

Haha. PThanks.

[locouk]

Shame you don't upload 1080p HD, mind you it dose take quite a time. Nice to see you have the mercury glue set out again Dave.

[NightFlyyer]

Well I have done that and it takes too much time and memory. I find that If you take HD videos and send them in smaller, people still get the point. Thanks.

[exiledconnections]

nice i like them both dave 5 stars sir

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks kindly.

[metalmikexx]

That snow looks beautiful, but it makes me glad to live in South Carolina.

[NightFlyyer]

It is nice for a while all right.

[nishbrown]

Nice porch job with the J3!

Do they make a opossum plane?

lol

[NightFlyyer]

Haha.  Thanks kindly.

[oliverdots]

You always seem to fly to a nice snowy backdrop!! Looked a fun project and something I may have to expore myself. Thanks Dave...big thumbs up!!

[NightFlyyer]

Haha. Thanks. Hey, snow is softer than asphault. LOL Go for it.

[startazz]

That is one sweet looking bird and it's nice to see the pro's crash just like us mere mortals Dave ;-) = 5* as always my friend.

[NightFlyyer]

Haha. Your too kind. I appreciate that.

[catfishmudflap]

Awesome bird.

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks.

[catfishmudflap]

You are most welcome General.

[DLPlanes]

Very nice, the dinosaur was very impressive to see fly. Good work Dave!

.~DLPlanes

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks very kindly for your comments.

[onelonleyfarmer]

[Salvatore956]

[BrotherBloat]

[NightFlyyer]

Thank you very much bro.

[oggybodoggy]

Wow almost as much snow as in Norway

[NightFlyyer]

Haha. Almost?

[beverke7]

awesome Ptero, looks great in the sky, music intro well chosen, nice project, love it !

Snow walk was pretty funny too Dave, Ilea must have had lots of fun (and cold) LOL

[NightFlyyer]

Haha. Thanks very kindly. She actually loves the snow and cold.

[sinformant]

lol someone should have gotten you snow shoes for your birthday!

[NightFlyyer]

haha.  Good Point!

[anariaq]

Could it be possible that one day you could start a series that follows you building your own design built? something easy ( if there is easy in R/C world ) and give good advice about different things? There is some on youtube I know. But I find that I understand you alot better about R/C logic that any other. ( voting for antonov AN-2 ) :P

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks. I actually have a few of my own designs on YT. Search will if fly or wont it or the Junkyard dog or my UFO. I will keep it mind, however.

[anariaq]

@NightFlyyer I got a wishful thinking about it been balsa plane ( but think its to much work? ) like the foam plane but even if its the future for rc flight. Easy to built, light and strong ( or im way off?) I really love the old balsa planes. And think a Antonov an-2 could be a good one? could be a good beginner airplane? Anariaq

[DornAlien123]

nice

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks.

[aramco123]

wow man

i love your vids

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks very much for your support.

[poerik]

LOLand Lot s of Luck with that one. I just have to try to keep flying, no matter what. Thanks for your comment.

[NightFlyyer]

Thank you very much.

[covertyankee]

cool project! another great vid!

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks very kindly.

[plastation7]

Wow thats a pretty cool little flyer you have there. How much snow have you guys gotten. I live to the west in Nebraska.

[NightFlyyer]

Hello Neighbor and Thank you. We are under the worst winter ever, as they tell me.

[Admiral1428]

Sorry to hear your Sukhoi is retired, but nice project! I myself flew my cub in the snow today in my backyard and it was fun! ( :

[NightFlyyer]

Thanks. The P51 flies better than the Sukhoi, so I don't feel so bad. I love it when others fly in the snow too. Congrats.

[Admiral1428]

Yes I would agree there. My P-51 flies like it's on rails! So does the cub!

[calebiskkkool]

haha general sibley saves the day??

[NightFlyyer]

Yep, our town was named after General Sibley.

[gripchion]

Good job Ilea! Thanks for letting your old man make awesome videos. We all know the man is only as good as his woman at least thats what my wife always says. LOL

Thanks

[NightFlyyer]

There is always a good woman behind a man. They have the power too. Ilea will read this, so I better be good......or no food!

[BellowingBeaver]

so the tail is much like a firebird phantom?

[NightFlyyer]

Exactly.
